Bordo Bello

The 2009 Bordo Bello skateboard art fundraiser was a HUGE success - what a great event! Above is the board I donated. It got auctioned off at the event. I tried my hand at winning a few boards but fell short, hopefully I'll have better luck next year.

Please vote for my snowboard (but only if you like it)!

REI and Arbor Snowboards are having a board design contest and I entered it! My board is titled "FLOW", and you can vote for it by clicking here.

I will be participating in Fancy Tiger's Holiday Handmade this year!

Yesssss! Fancy Tiger accepted me into their Holiday Handmade Craft Fair!

Please stop by my booth and say "hello"! I'll be selling some really great holiday gifts such as one-of-a-kind Moleskine journals, small original art, pins, magnets and digital prints. There will be a ton of other great sellers as well (60 total!), so you're sure to find something for everyone.

Dec. 4: 6–9pm

Each pair comes in 3 different color combos. Below are the socks and links to buy them. Go get yourself a pair... or 10!

Local Artist I'm diggin': Alyson Khan

A couple of weeks ago I was at Metropolis Coffee and stumbled upon Alyson Khan's art. From the moment I saw it, I was sucked in. The colors, the composition... I couldn't NOT look at it. Upon further inspection of each piece I discovered they were collages. Great stuff. Seriously, check out her site: http://www.unevenfloor.com/. Her progression from Spring 2004-present day is pretty fantastic. I love discovering great local artists. Keep the beauty flowing, Alyson!

Working on a cut paper piece

No title yet. This one is 19" x 13" and I've been using an exacto blade to cut it out (cue the "Uncle Joey" visual). It's kind of annoying, but at the same time it's very therapeutic.
